Anticipating your child

What is FASD?

Generally referred to as FASD, Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders are the most common, most expensive, and yet most preventable of all mental disorders in the industrialized world. FASworld is dedicated to the idea that a woman should not drink alcohol when planning or during pregnancy.
